The Insurance Institute For Highway Safety is calling the 2008 Ford Explorer the safest mid-sized SUV on the market in terms of causing damage to other vehicles in low speed crashes. This safety announcement comes as no surprise to Ford. The company has been constantly working to create safer and safer sport utility vehicles as consumer demand for higher safety ratings and features has consistently increased.
The Ford Explorer is a vehicle that has been popular for quite a few years now. Since it entered the market, sales have increased and the Explorer has become a staple of mid-sized SUVs on the American automotive market. This is likely because, in addition to safety improvements, the Ford Explorer already packs an impressive punch in terms of capabilities as a powerful and convenient vehicle for families.

The Harbour Report, North America 2008 took a good hard look at manufacturing productivity for major car makers like Ford Motor Company. Their assessment of Ford showed a 3.7 percent increase in Ford’s productivity. When Ford’s group vice president of Global Manufacturing and Labor Affairs, Joe Hinrichs, saw the statement, he agreed. By increasing nearly four percent, he stated, Ford is showing a continued effort and consistent improvement and constantly higher levels of quality.
Ford’s increased productivity did not come as a surprise. Their manufacturing productivity has improved consecutively for the past six years in a row. With the popularity of vehicles like the Escape Hybrid, Edge, Taurus, Expedition, Fusion, Mustang, and F-150, it’s no surprise that Ford’s manufacturing process is as successful as the vehicles it produces. Hinrichs credits all Ford employees for their “disciplined focus” when it comes to making the cars and trucks that America loves.
If you’d love to be driving a Ford, you should be! Come to Ricart Automotive to see our expansive collection of cars, trucks and SUVs from which you can choose. We even have fuel efficient vehicles and hybrids as well. At Ricart Automotive, you’ll be able to find a car that is right for you.

These days, American drivers are looking for vehicles that meet their financial goals, express the character of the drivers, and offer specific features that those drivers deem important. Of course, everyone is looking for something a little bit different in a car or truck, but for many drivers, the 2008 Chevy Tahoe Hybrid is meeting all these needs in one impressive vehicle.
Many Americans are looking for space when it comes to their vehicle. You want ample room for family and friends, for groceries, and for tools or materials when working on a project. It’s also important to be able to tow a boat or camper if these are your hobbies. But the Chevy Tahoe Hybrid shines above many other SUVs by adding a significant advantage: fuel-saving hybrid technology. A hybrid SUV meets the desires of today’s drivers and is budget friendly when you pull up to the pump.
The Chevy Tahoe Hybrid shows that you can drive “big” and “green” at the same time. Ricart Automotive is excited about this automotive milestone, and we’d like to help you find a new or used car, truck, or SUV that offers exactly what you’re looking for in a vehicle. So head on down to Ricart Automotive, the nation’s largest single collection of vehicles, and see what Chevy and many other brands have to offer.

When Fred Ricart took over Ricart Automotive from his father, who started the central Ohio dealership years ago, he knew that customer service was important. One of the most important elements of customer service is being able to give your patrons exactly what they are looking for. This was important in Ricart Automotive’s early days, and the expansion of the dealership to include seven different automotive brands is just one of the ways that Fred Ricart has made this goal a reality.
In fact, Ricart Automotive offers so many choices that you are allowed to be quite picky. With more than 4,000 cars, trucks and SUVs at your fingertips, you can specify exactly the features you are looking for and still have several different vehicles to choose from. Fred Ricart makes this particularly easy. With our online “Find My Car” feature, you can specify the condition, body style, engine, color, or transmission type of your dream car. You can even check features such as sun roof, luggage rack and alloy wheels.
The Ricart Automotive website will then do a search for you, including trade in information, to help you locate the exact car, truck or SUV to match your needs. Or, come down and talk to us in person. Our friendly staff is one of Fred Ricart’s major priorities. We’ll walk you through your choices and help you find a new or used vehicle that’s just right for you.
